Pipeline Integrity Management (PIM) embodies a comprehensive approach aimed at ensuring the secure and reliable operation of pipelines. This strategic framework is essential for handling the distribution and transportation of various substances like natural gas and hazardous liquids. Its implementation involves stringent adherence to pipeline safety regulations to ensure complete integrity management throughout the process.
Within the realm of Pipeline Integrity Management, distinct services are pivotal for effective operations such as inspection services, cleaning services, and repair and refurbishment services. Inspection services are instrumental in conducting periodic structural assessments of pipeline systems. These assessments are geared towards identifying and addressing potential pipeline defects such as corrosion and cracks. These services are deployed across diverse sectors like crude oil and natural gas, encompassing both onshore and offshore locations.
The pipeline integrity management market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides pipeline integrity management market statistics, including pipeline integrity management industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a pipeline integrity management market share, detailed pipeline integrity management market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the pipeline integrity management industry. This pipeline integrity management market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The pipeline integrity management market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $10.14 billion in 2024 to $10.77 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to stringent regulatory standards, aging pipeline infrastructure, incident prevention and safety concerns, risk-based inspection strategies, integration of data analytics.
The pipeline integrity management market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $13.41 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to shift towards condition-based maintenance, government initiatives for safety standards, focus on remote monitoring and inspection, integration of predictive maintenance, rise in investment for infrastructure renewal. Major trends in the forecast period include adoption of digital twin technology, implementation of risk-based integrity management, focus on data integration and visualization, development of leak detection technologies.
The substantial growth of the oil and gas pipeline network is anticipated to drive the expansion of the pipeline integrity management (PIM) market in the future. Pipeline integrity management (PIM) is a strategy employed by pipeline operators to ensure the safety of a pipeline from its inception to its decommissioning. It comprises various activities designed to maintain pipeline integrity. In oil and gas pipeline networks, pipeline integrity management enhances the safety of transporting hazardous liquids and natural gas by conducting increased integrity assessments to prevent leaks or ruptures during normal operations and emergencies. For example, in December 2023, an article by Global Energy Monitor, a U.S.-based non-governmental organization, reported that approximately 69,700 kilometers (km) of gas transmission pipelines were under construction worldwide, marking an 18% increase from 2022 and representing a total investment of US$193.9 billion for the year 2023. Consequently, the significant expansion of the oil and gas pipeline network is fueling the growth of the pipeline integrity management (PIM) market.
The increasing frequency of pipeline failures is contributing to market growth in the pipeline integrity management sector. Pipeline failures refer to events where pipelines designed for transporting liquids, gases, or other substances experience disruptions, leaks, or structural problems that compromise their integrity or functionality. Pipeline integrity management is a proactive and comprehensive strategy employed to prevent and address pipeline failures, which includes the implementation of measures and practices to ensure the safe and reliable operation of pipelines throughout their lifecycle. For instance, in June 2022, the U.S. PIRG Education Fund, a non-profit organization, revealed that over 2,600 gas pipeline leaks in the U.S. caused $4 billion in damages, resulted in 122 fatalities and 603 injuries, and released 26.6 billion cubic feet of fuel. Additionally, approximately 33% of these incidents led to fires, and 13% resulted in explosions, causing 122 deaths by 2021. Therefore, the rising incidence of pipeline failures is expected to drive the growth of the pipeline integrity management market moving forward.
Major companies in the pipeline integrity management market are prioritizing research and development for product innovations, including embedded computing solutions, to maintain their competitive edge. An embedded computing solution is a specialized computing system integrated into a larger device or application to perform specific functions or tasks. For example, in October 2022, OKdo, a UK-based technology firm, launched the Radxa ROCK 3 Compute Module (CM3), a powerful embedded computing solution aimed at enhancing various applications, including smart pipeline inspections. The Radxa Rock CM3 can be integrated into smart pipeline inspection systems that employ various sensors to detect leaks, corrosion, and other potential issues within pipelines. This functionality is vital for preserving pipeline integrity and preventing failures.
Leading companies in the market are focused on creating technologically advanced products, such as AI-based gas cloud imaging systems, to broaden their customer base and boost revenue. The Gas Cloud Imaging (GCI) system developed by Honeywell is an innovative technology that utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) for automated and continuous monitoring of hazardous gas leaks, including methane, in oil and gas, chemical, and power generation facilities. For instance, in July 2024, Indosat, a telecommunications provider based in Singapore, introduced AI tools for the Indonesian oil and gas sector to enhance operational efficiency. The suite of six products features advanced capabilities, including high-resolution seismic analysis via AI technology, which employs AI to analyze seismic data for improved exploration, and connected worker solutions designed to enhance communication among personnel, reduce manual errors, and ensure compliance with safety standards.
In June 2022, OneSoft Solutions Inc., a Canada-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider, acquired Bass Engineering Company for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition allows OneSoft Solutions Inc. to enhance its product portfolio in integrity management solutions and secure a competitive edge in the market. Bass Engineering Company is a US-based firm specializing in pipeline integrity management solutions.
